Bikes for Kids is a Connecticut based organization that brings smiles to children one bike at a time. Our volunteers collect, repair and safety test donated used bicycles. The refurbished bicycles along with new helmets are given away to individuals of all ages and needs. Most donated bicycles remain in Connecticut, but some have reached children in other states and countries. More than 1,000 bicycles are given away annually. As we are a needs-based organization, requests for bicycles come from individuals, local and state social service organizations, churches, school counselors, non-profits, and many civic minded groups.
